Mono Green Creature Fetch deck
Modern Deck Help forum
Posted on Oct. 1, 2016, 4:32 p.m. by PaperKw
I've been working on improving my modern mono green deck any help would be nice even if it's just card mentions.
Creatures:
4x Fauna Shaman
4x Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary
1x Vigor
Spells:
2x Harmonize
4x Rancor
1x Genesis Wave
Lands:
16x Forest
4x Dryad Arbor
Sideboard (unfinished):
2x Acidic Slime
1x Elderscale Wurm or Tree of Redemption
The idea of the deck is to use Fauna Shaman to fetch the big creatures depending on the situation. With Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary I'm able to cast any of the big creatures by turn 4 (if I get a land every turn.)
Vines of Vastwood to protect Fauna Shaman or any other creature from burn/kill spells or prevent my opponent from using spells on his creatures.
Genesis Wave is more of a mid/late game card. I mostly picked these bigger creatures because they have really good abilities that really make it hard to kill my other creatures.
I know generally mono-colors don't do as well as multi-color decks but I like the play style of green, bringing out big creatures with unstoppable force to smash my opponents life to 0.
Weird I must have overlooked that, I don't want to play legacy so I guess he has to go. Would you suggest replacing the 3 other dryad arbors for basic/non-basic land?

In mono colors basics and fetch lands are your only real options. However Treetop Village comes to mind. If it's a creature fetch deck you should use Chord of Calling and you can replace the elf legend with Elvish Archdruid

Don't let the red in there fool you, it's really a mono-green deck that has the option of playing Blood Moon and Lightning Bolt if the player so chooses.
By using Overgrowth, Utopia Sprawl, and/or Fertile Ground in combination with Arbor Elf and Voyaging Satyr, you can cast huge Genesis Waves or Tooth and Nail by turns 3 or 4.
Even casting Tooth and Nail for something like Sylvan Primordial can be absolutely devastating. Primeval Titan makes another great target because you can go get Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx or Kessig Wolf Run.

Right of the bat: Roffelos isn't modern legal. So you either take him out or play legacy. Second, you never want more than 1x dryad arbor. Too many is just clunky.
